I'm a big shot in basketball

"Of course our goal is to win the championship.

We are also confident to win the championship, but now we are only leading 3-0 in the series. Our first job is to continue to prepare for the game against the Lakers. I said that we will sweep the Lakers, but sweeping is very difficult. We need to do our best... "

Su Yang's domineering and non-arrogant speech was quickly circulated in major media and basketball forums. Apart from ESPN commentators, most other media commentators and fans expressed their appreciation. Basketball games don't need to be nice. It's better to have reasonable provocations. .

Su Yang hurried back to the hotel on his own, and chatted with the management over a supper of offal.The general manager Sean suddenly said: "If we win the championship, will Kevin Garnett have the nerve to come? We were worried that he would not join the team that defeated him.

But can he join a team that has already won a championship?

At that time, the media will definitely criticize us, saying that we won the championship before he came. He is just a passenger on the championship bus. "

Everyone thought about it,

Su Yang was thinking about Durant, and blurted out: "Drexler, he averaged 94 points, 95 rebounds and 22 assists per game in the Trail Blazers in 5.7-5.1. For Otis Thorpe."

"You are so fast!"

Sean lamented Su Yang's quick thinking. Mu Lin and others nodded in agreement. Everyone was still thinking. Su Yang didn't need to think about it. The key point was that he could remember the decimal point so clearly about the specific data and the number of times he was selected as an All-Star. .

Su Yang responded with a smile,

In fact, when the plan to recruit Garnett was first decided, various possibilities had been considered, especially the chain reaction caused by the Warriors winning the championship. In order to better help Garnett join, similar cases were found in advance to avoid someone When the time comes to attack Garnett, he will hold his thighs. Of course, he can remember the decimal point data and the number of All-Stars, and it is indeed a photographic memory.

"We don't need to take the initiative to openly recruit Garnett. Cassel has already gone to the Nuggets. As long as the Timberwolves can't make room to recruit suitable players, Garnett will naturally have the idea of ​​​​leaving. Anyway, the Timberwolves will not let Garnett leave early. , Garnett will not take the risk of jumping out of the contract and giving up the rights to sign a super contract, we just need to facilitate the final transaction.

In many cases, the impact of things will vary greatly due to different opinions. For example, O'Neill thinks that he has too little possession of the ball. He adopts the statement of low EQ and believes that as a three-time FMVP, he should not only have so many penalty kicks. Using high emotional intelligence, such as helping Kobe share the pressure or let his teammates participate in the offense more, unfortunately he will not. "

Mullin and the others laughed out loud.

"So, as long as we let the Timberwolves think that trading Garnett with us is the most cost-effective option, it is not that Garnett joins the championship team as a superstar. He doesn't even need to apply for a deal. He just needs to suspend early contract renewal negotiations."

Mullin and the others nodded their heads and thought it was feasible.

As for who to exchange for Garnett would be the best bargaining chip in the league, everyone tacitly did not discuss it.

The next day was a day off. Su Yang took the whole team out to Malibu Beach to relax his nervous nerves. He held a beach concert and temporarily named it "Band by the Sea". He planned to register the copyright and keep it for future variety shows.

At the same time, there were constant quarrels within the Lakers team.

O'Neal complained that he took 14 shots, while Kobe took 31 shots. Most of his points were obtained through singles and tactical fouls. He has no core tactical position at all. He is still the player with the highest defensive efficiency in the team.

Phil Jackson explained that it was because the Warriors' defense was too good, which led to a high risk of forced passing. It was not intentional not to give tactical status, let alone to cooperate with the management to suppress the contract renewal. I hope that O'Neal can temporarily make some sacrifices .

The media is simultaneously discussing the possibility of the OK combination being disbanded in the summer. If the Lakers no longer build a championship lineup around O'Neal, they must exchange painful stars. It is easy to balance, or exchange potential rookies and draft picks, such as sending the Cavaliers, Raptors and Nuggets who may get high draft picks.

Especially wanting a powerful center Mavericks is also an option, not to mention that Don Nelson wanted O'Neal when he was in the Knicks.

During the hot discussion, the whole Warriors team had dinner at night, and watched the Spurs play the Mavericks by the way, to see if there was anything new in advance.

The two teams are still fighting like hell, but the Spurs clearly have the advantage, because the Mavericks guards have too much possession of the ball, and they can't play the effect of the regular season in the face of tough confrontation. The forward line is even weaker, and Parker can defend it. , All rely on shooting to win.

At the beginning, Su Yang urged Cuban not to sign LaFrentz, who was beaten by Duncan every game. Except for an average of 4.8 fouls per game, he had nothing to do. It is estimated that Cuban is bleeding in his heart, but let Cuban meet three times next time. If the points are big, he will sign.

When the game was over, the Mavericks made a lot of rushing delays and ran wildly, and the Spurs ran to death alive.

A narrow victory by 3 points!

Seeing the result, everyone was glad that the Spurs played against the Mavericks first, and they had to shed a layer of skin if they could win.

On the second day of the game, the fourth game of the second round of the Western Conference playoffs between the Warriors and the Lakers continued at the Staples Center.

Many Lakers fans assembled outside the arena early, holding a huge photo of the OK combination winning the championship in the past three years, shouting that there is no contradiction in OK, shouting that the Lakers can win 4 games in a row, and shouting that if the miracle has color, it must be the Lakers yellow!

Six o'clock pre-match ceremony.

TNT live broadcast commentator Barkley joked, saying that Nicholson brought Leonardo and so many stars to the scene. Every time a contract is renewed, there will be trouble. It was with the Magic before, but now it is with the Lakers. It is rare in the world to win three consecutive FMVPs and be questioned about its dominance.

Taking advantage of the pre-match preparations, Su Yang hugged Beyoncé who had come to support him specially, and the photographers on the scene snapped wildly.

Then the game started,

Faced with the situation of being eliminated, the Lakers have not changed much, but O'Neal obviously put away his previous anxiety.

O'Neal is also very active in defense. He defended Dayao alone in the opening game. Perhaps in order to show his attitude, he actually forgot the basic common sense of back-up defense and used both hands to push Yao back. Penalty hit.

Kobe kept his hands on his hips the whole time to show he was speechless.

Turning to the Lakers to attack, O'Neal singled out Yao, smashed and scored a dunk, roared and ran and shouted,

It seems to go back to the summer when I was 22 years old.

Unexpectedly, the game continued, and O'Neal failed to make a shot for a full 5 minutes. Seeing the Lakers trailing 8 to 15, he scratched his head and scratched his ears anxiously. Defensive foul, two free throws.

It's a pity that he hit all two free throws. Fortunately, he didn't continue to make mistakes, didn't lose his temper, and honestly switched offense and defense.

After the first quarter, the Warriors led 29-25.

Entering the second quarter, the Lakers compressed the rotation.

Kobe, who played 12 minutes in the first quarter, reappeared after only 2 minutes and 08 seconds of rest. O'Neal, Bryan Shaw and Horry played for 12 minutes. Kobe also controlled the ball for halftime. Improve team scoring efficiency.

Su Yang arranged for the Warriors to rotate as usual, and the single quarter was tied.

Returning to the locker room during the halftime break, Arenas and others lamented that the referee didn't blow the whistle, complaining that the Lakers might really be hopeless.Su Yang calmly prepared the whole team. Don't relax in the second half. Kobe, who is facing a desperate situation, may explode.

The TNT live broadcast also discussed why the Lakers fell into such a situation. The guest Tracy McGrady said that the Warriors’ style of play is actually too advanced. They can maintain a very high offensive efficiency without superstars. Everyone’s position and role on the court are perfect.

And even if the Lakers don't make mistakes, their offensive efficiency is not as good as that of the Warriors. They can only trail the Warriors by 4 points at halftime, but if the Lakers make mistakes, it will be the same tragedy as the previous three games. Efficiency is terrible.

The second half of the game started quickly.

The situation of the game has not changed much. Except for O'Neal and Kobe, Fisher is 3 for 0 and Horry is 3 for 0. On the Warriors side, the distribution of the ball is very even, and everyone can score. It is because of Yao Ming's two screens. Violation early end.

The Warriors entered the fourth quarter with a 7-point lead.

Su Yang arranged for the JRA combination of Jamison + Richardson + Arenas to appear as usual, paired with Murphy and Pain, the whole court was pressing + double-teaming rotation, a wave of 13 to 2, and O'Neal + Pargo + Brian Shaw's Lakers bench lineup.

The momentum of the Lakers collapsed, only Kobe tried to make a miracle by rushing to shoot three-pointers, but Kobe made 7 of 1 consecutive shots.

The final whistle sounded, and the Warriors defeated the Lakers 114-82, sweeping the series 4-0 to advance.

O'Neal left without shaking hands. Phil smiled awkwardly at Su Yang and hurried back to the locker room. Only Kobe walked to the Warriors bench and shook hands with Su Yang, Billups and others one by one. Look lonely.

The post-match interview was carried out at the same time. Arenas joked: "O'Neal took 21 shots tonight, finally the highest in the Lakers team, but in the end it was our Warriors who won the game..." Lakers fans may be a bit rebellious, and they shouted to trade Shaq .

Su Yang thought that Arenas was crazy, and then saw that Alba and Hathaway hadn't left yet. He invited them to take a group photo on the spur of the moment, and with the consent of the two beauties, he couldn't help but put his left arm around Alba and his right around Hathaway. Wei, and Beyoncé is standing next to her.

Alba and Hathaway resisted instinctively, but they didn't break free.

That kind of scene was transmitted to the eyes of big-name Lakers fans Nicholson and Leonardo through the big screen, as well as tens of thousands of ordinary fans. In the middle-level VIP room, the Clippers who accompanied Lakers owner Bass to watch the game Owner Donald Sterling chuckled:

"Truly regards Staples as his place,

Domineering exposed, courting death. "
